Sinossi
"Gesù mi osservava già prima che lo vedessi e con un gesto mi indicò di unirmi a lui lungo la strada, cosa che feci. Aspettai che parlasse, ma egli rimase in silenzio e io feci lo stesso. Ma in silenzio, camminando al suo fianco, riflettevo..." "Il grande erudito ebreo Jacob Neusner in un importante libro si è, per così dire, inserito tra gli ascoltatori del Discorso della montagna e ha poi cercato di avviare un colloquio con Gesù, intitolato 'Un rabbino parla con Gesù'. Questa disputa condotta con rispetto e franchezza tra un ebreo credente e Gesù, il figlio di Abramo, più di altre interpretazioni del 'Discorso della montagna' a me note, mi ha aperto gli occhi sulla grandezza della parola di Gesù e sulla scelta di fronte alla quale ci pone il Vangelo." (Benedetto XVI)

As a faithful Rabbi, Neusner puts himself in first century, enters into dialogue with Jesus, and shows how and why he would dissent to Jesus’ teachings, creating an incredibly fascinating project, the likes of which I would love to see more of. I had to remove a star due to the blatant logical error Leggi tutto
This is a fascinating, illuminating, frustrating, and (for me a) melancholy book. The author, a rabbi, addresses Jesus using the most Jewish of gospels, the book of Matthew. Since Matthew's gospel focuses on Jesus' relationship with the Torah, Rabbi Neusner addresses Jesus on that basis, the Torah b Leggi tutto
An excellent breakdown of the differences between Post-exilic Judaism and Christianity in the terms of Matthew's Jesus and the exposition of the Torah. Parts of the book aren't going to be convincing to non-Jews, but Neusner isn't aiming for that. Neusner's exposition of Judaism of the Talmuds into
How to describe this book!? First, I was incredibly excited to get my hands on this read, as I love the work of Jacob Neusner and my whole life's work is indebted to the things he helped bring to this world in terms of Jewish-Christian scholarship and dialogue. Then, I got the book and read the commen Leggi tutto
Wonderfully written and thought-provoking. For a follower of Jesus, we must honestly wrestle with the reality that the OT text is under-determined. Torah does not inevitably lead to Jesus. While we may see the logic for the texts as converging on Jesus, others like Jacob Neusner do not. We do well t Leggi tutto
I am a little disappointed with this read. It has been claimed many times as an essential Jewish refutation of the messiahship of Jesus, when In fact it was a single presupposition manifested over and over again. That presupposition being "Jesus claimed to be God, and no man can be God". At the foun Leggi tutto
Essentially, this books is about how Jesus lies when he said that he came to fulfill the Torah because he clearly encourages his followers to violate its commandments. Given that the book was supposed to offer a dialogue with Jesus from the perspective of one of his contemporary Jews, I found the ac Leggi tutto
